Watched Part 1, about preparing an expedition to find ancient treasure at an island off Brazil's coast, last week. Not bad, and the ending preceding this week's show created suspense: a fast-approaching unknown, potential pirate ship. (Part 2 is Friday at 10 pm ET.) The expedition crew is terrified of armed pirates as much as a certain deadly snake. Brazil will jail crew members with any protective fire arms. And a current series in the New York Times, "Weapons on the Water, Violence at Sea," relates to pirate fears. Interesting new tech is detailed for the hunt, an Australian snake…

Just as Comcast dips its toe in the internet TV business, Sling TV is claiming that the giant is refusing to run ads for its service on NBC stations that it owns. According to Sling TV CEO Roger Lynch (last seen walking off with our Best of CES Overall Winner trophy), the ads are running across other broadcasters, and on NBC stations not owned by Comcast. If the idea was to cut down on the number of people seeing an alternative to the cable setup, that may have backfired since you're reading this right now. Comcast's NBC stations aren't running the ads in three cities (San Diego, San…

If anything's kept pace with how video games have changed over the years, it's how we interact with them.

NBCUniversal confirmed to FierceCable that it will not run advertisements for Dish Network's OTT Sling TV service on its owned and operated stations in San Francisco, San Diego, New York and Washington D.C.

Mark Lowenstein, managing director of Mobile Ecosystem, admits he's never been a big fan of AT&T's $49 billion DirecTV purchase. "Pay-TV is not a growing business, and I believe AT&T's dollars would have been better spent expanding its broadband business in the U.S.," he writes in FierceWireless.

The cable industry will eventually move to a BYOD (bring your own device) world, Time Warner Cable Chairman and CEO Rob Marcus conceded. But he said in the meantime the MSO will continue to aggressively lease set-tops and modems.

Delving into what he admits is the very inexact science of measuring app downloads, MoffettNathanson media analyst Michael Nathanson estimates that HBO Now currently has between 970,000 and 1.9 million subscribers.

While Comcast's 2011 MVNO agreement with Verizon has been widely viewed as an easy entry point for the MSO to create a Wi-Fi-first mobile service, the four-year-old deal actually presents Comcast with a range of pricing and packaging challenges.
